Synopsis
Paris, August 31, 1997 A horrific high-speed car crash in Paris’s Pont d’Alma tunnel extinguishes the life of the 20th Century’s most beloved Princess when the Mercedes she is riding in collides with an inattentively driven Fiat Uno. André Dominelli, the driver of the Fiat, is a former computer technician with the French Ministry of Defence who was on his way that fateful night to broker top-secret ballistic missile technology to a secretive German arms dealer. On the run from both the French authorities and the arms merchant’s ruthless chief operative—an emotionless Scandinavian killing machine named Peterson—Dominelli resorts to measures that could only come from a desperate, cornered animal in order to remain alive and escape the clutches of his pursuers. A continent away, a professional Canadian race car driver struggles to keep both his high-powered Formula Atlantic car and his fledgling career together as he competes on the streets of Vancouver in a prestigious development series for the CART/IndyCar Championship. A former career soldier, Jack Wright’s late start in the world of professional racing has put him at a severe disadvantage to the other young lions competing in the Toyota Atlantic series. At thirty-two years of age, he is acutely aware that he must win now and win often, or forever abandon his aspiration of racing on the world stage. A series of seemingly unrelated events find the Canadian race car driver and the French software technician—with the relentless Peterson in tow—converging on a collision course in San Francisco. The turbulence and bedlam that Dominelli believed he had left a continent and an ocean behind him comes roaring back with brutal force and the reluctant French spy is forced to confront his own mortality as the once cold trail heats up. Before long, Jack Wright and the woman that he finds himself falling in love with are pulled into this same vortex of espionage, violence and sudden death. The danger that confronts Wright is greater than any he has faced before—on the battlefield or the race track—and his only chance for survival is to beat these professional mercenaries and killers at their own vicious game.
